Featured Domains

A video game platform, a forex broker, and co-working company bought domain names last week.

This week the NamesCon live domain name auction brought in $2.3 million in sales. And while there were certainly some end users raising paddles, most of those sales were to domain investors. On the end user front, I uncovered 10 sales at Sedo and one that Greg Ricks sold on his site PerfectName.

Here are the end user domain sales. You can view previous lists like this here.

Olsen.com $51,511 – GLC Softwares builds a number of software products. Its CEO also runs Mastermind.com…and his middle name is Olsen. (This sale was on PerfectName.com.)

Play.de €30,000 – The nameservers for the domain changed to online-casino.de, although the original online games site of the previous owner is still resolving.

JavaHouse.de €6,000 – This domain forwards to the European page of JavaHouse.com, a U.S.-based Coldbrew coffee company.

SupportX.com $5,010 – A data center lifecycle management company out of California bought this domain under the company’s moniker.

Smudge.com £4,140 – An app builder called Smudge got a heck of a deal on this domain name.

MyVessel.com $3,999 – This site is currently in development but is for some sort of affordable housing company. The name suggests it will be micro housing or prefab. Whois shows the new owner is Delano Corona Holdings.

Aviaro.com €3,500 – Bought by a Voice Over IP calling solutions provider that focuses on supporting call centers and other businesses in the U.S.

SwissHealthcare.com €3,000 – This domain is still not resolving but was purchased by Swiss Dental Services, which can be found under several listings including Portugal and the UK when searched for on Google.

Shopify.no $2,600 – I assume that the ecommerce company bought this domain.

Taesang.com $2,000 – Korean based manufacturer of products for wind and nuclear power plants as well as products for the shipbuilding industry. It now owns the .com version of its domain and already operates several different language sites.

A tax service provider, a video game company and soccer forum all bought domain names recently.

Sedo published a new sales list that covers a few weeks of sales over the holidays, so we have a bonanza of end user sales to report this week.

Let’s get right to it, and if you like this list, you can view previous lists like this here.

Taxes.com $250,000 – Sedo sold this high value generic key term to the international tax services and consulting firm Ryan, which is headquartered in Dallas. They currently utilize Ryan.com as their main site but with this purchase, they will certainly receive more traffic.

FinalGoal.com $68,000 – This domain is being used for a soccer forum.

Zuj.com €10,099 – This valuable 3L .com was purchased by Redfox Ventures, a branding agency, presumably for one of its clients.

Eat.fr €7,000 – A food takeout and delivery service bought this French ccTLD.
